Debbie the waitress is a pip. We immediately felt like part of the family. Full disclosure, I do not like breakfast potatoes but the potatoes that were served with the Hungry Man breakfast was fantastic. I could have eaten a whole bowl of them! Food is excellent, a young chef in the back knows what he is doing. They have numerous specials and evening entertainment. We'll be back.

One of my favorite places to go I absolutely love this place love the menu love the waitress

I won a gift card to Zest in Bay Shore and finally got a chance to get over there and I'm so upset I didn't get there sooner! They have an extensive menu going from breakfast through to dinner with daily specials and a great take out meal deal that changes weekly I stopped in intending to do take out but the omelets looked so good I decided to stay and boy am I glad I did. This is the steak (brisket) and egg with onions and cheese I had them hold the peppers, with their oh so yummy home fries. Everything is made to order and very fresh. My server, Debbie was fantastic. Very friendly and helpful and even put on a fresh pot of coffee for me. I will certainly be back and highly recommend you go there you won't regret it !

I'm a vegan visiting from out of town, and I was so pleasantly surprised to find that Zest offers a full vegan menu , not just one or two options, but an actual thoughtful lineup of dishes. The food was absolutely delicious, and my whole family (mixed dietary preferences) loved their meals. The wait staff was amazing , genuinely kind, attentive, and knowledgeable about the menu. It made the entire experience feel so welcoming. I highly recommend Zest to anyone, vegan or not. We left really happy and will definitely be back next time we're in town.

Holy... for a place that doesn't look like much from the outside (I think it used to be a friendly's?), it ABSOLUTELY delivers!!! Ambiance inside is great, with a fully stocked bar and artwork adorning the walls. Servers and staff are all very friendly, but the star of the show here is the food. First of all, huge menu so you have plenty to choose from ranging from classics, to unique takes on dishes that add that extra.... zest? (see what I did there?...) But seriously, everything we tried here was incredible and the portions are generous. The brisket sandwich came out looking like a stacked burger that I could barely get my hands around, and it was so flavorful. I'll definitely be returning because like I said, the menu is huge and I can't wait to try some of these other dishes!

Whenever we make it back here, we do it explicitly for the burgers. We enjoy their burgers a lot since they are always well made. We've tried the Cole slaw which is always fresh and I like to get the fries. Their cornbread is sweet as always. I wanted to also take this opportunity to add more pictures including the inside, outside, and menus. This place is not expensive and you can definitely have a nice date night here. The service is always great- they are very attentive and work as a team. I base my 5 stars on the service, ambiance, and burgers. I'll be back to try something different on the menu!

The food is always fresh and delicious, the customizations are endless and the price is more than reasonable. Once you come here, you will definitely be a regular. Everyone is so friendly and happy, they make you feel at home in the best way. Love Zest!

Had an amazing night at Zest with five of my girlfriends! From the moment we walked in, the vibe was fun and welcoming -- the perfect spot for a girls' night out. The drinks were so good ( bottomless mimosas was great) food was delicious and fresh!!! Our waitress Teresa was absolutely excellent -- attentive, friendly, and made the whole experience even better. On top of that, the owner was genuinely so nice and made us feel welcomed, which always makes a difference. Great food, great drinks, great service, and great people. We laughed, relaxed, and had such a good time. Can't wait to come back!

Came here for lunch with a friend. We wanted to come here based on the restaurant week menu offerings. We wanted to order off the $39 menu. We were advised that was for dinner only and if we wanted to participate in restaurant week, we could only order off the $24 because that was the lunch offering. The menus itself did not specify "lunch" or "dinner" so I'm not sure what the issue was and I'm not sure why they wouldn't want to make more money as two orders off the $39 menu would be $78 before tax and tip. Our waitress gave us various other menus as well to look at. SO MANY MENUS. I settled on the chicken and waffle Cobb salad. It was good and different. My friend had the bbq pork lunch which included Mac and cheese, cornbread and slaw. She said she enjoyed it. Our tab came to about $34 before tax and tip...about half of what we would have spent if we were allowed to order off the other menu.

I wanted to love this place - because it is adorable and the staff had the best customer service ever - they really worked in unison on each table, constantly asking if anything was needed, filling the carafes of water etc. Items ordered - Brisket Sandwich - PB&J pulled pork sandwich - Burgers - Fries - Wings Wings had great flavor but were tough, we ordered Thai chili, chimichurri, garlic Parmesan - Burgers were delish and huge !! Fries were so crispy and seasoned - the brisket was just ok. The pulled pork sandwich was very sweet. They also have a wine/beer/sangria bar - The white sangria was delish We really loved the decor - had graffiti walls with pictures of different artists on the walls

I won 2 gift cards to Zest so my husband and I decided to do a late lunch here. I am glad we did. We like to go when restaurants tend to be quiet in mid afternoon. The restaurant has a nice welcoming feel to it and I really liked the artwork and decor. On Saturdays Zest offers a fix price menu for 2 for $59 so we decided to do that. I will post a picture of the menu. We went with the romaine salad for 2, the cauliflower chip and dip, for entrees we had the ala vodka pizza and the vegetable panini and it came with zeppoles for dessert with 3 dipping sauces. EVERYTHING was really yummy. The cauliflower chips with the spinach, artichoke, roasted tomatoe hummus was scrumptious and crispy. The ala vodka pizza crust was perfect and the flavors (Smoked meatballs, prosciutto, provolone, crispy shallots) really went well together. I had the vegetable panini which was made of Fried eggplant, grilled zucchini, roasted peppers, spinach, provolone, bruschetta, fig balsamic glaze mouth watering and the panini bread nicely toasted. It was topped off with perfect fried dough zeppoles that came with raspberry jam, chocolate fudge, caramel dipping sauces. They have a lot of vegetarian choices too and a kids menu. The staff was very nice and the bathrooms were nice and clean. You will not be disappointed if you go to this restaurant. https://zestlongisland.com/menu/
